USB104 A7: Artix-7 FPGA Development Board with SYZYGY-compatible Expansion

The Digilent USB104 A7 boasts power and versatility in a compact and rugged package for industrial SWaP applications. Designed for use across the industrial temperature range, the USB104 A7 features the AMD Artix-7 XC7A100T with an operating range from -40C-100C.* The USB104 A7 also features a SYZYGY port for high-speed data acquisition through the addition of Zmod expansion modules. This allows users to quickly develop and run customized FPGA-based data acquisition and signal processing applications on embedded systems. Ideal application areas include industrial automation, embedded OEM, telecommunications and mil-aero.
The USB104 A7 conforms to the small and rugged PC/104 board outline and mounting dimensions. I/O is provided with on-board LEDs and push-buttons. The SYZYGY compatible Zmod expansion is supplemented with three 12-pin Pmod ports. An onboard USB hub and controller conveniently interfaces the USB104 A7 with JTAG, UART, and a parallel data interface (DPTI) through a single connection. The DPTI data transfer interface provides host-to-FPGA data transfer and is easily managed with Digilent’s Adept 2 application. This ease of use and high-speed data transfer is especially useful for deployed systems.
More on Pmod Expansion
Pmod™ devices are small I/O interface boards that offer an ideal way to extend the capabilities of programmable logic and embedded control boards. Designed by Digilent and used throughout the industry, the Pmod Standard has become one of the most widely adopted expansion standards for rapid prototyping with FPGA development boards. Pmods available from Digilent can be found here.
More on Zmod Expansion
Zmod is Digilent’s new expansion solution using the open-source SYZYGY standard from Opal Kelly. Faster than the Pmod Standard and more compact and cost-effective than FMC, Zmods improve the customizability options for high-speed measurement and I/O. Plug in your application specific Zmods and get up and running in hours or days, instead of weeks or months. Zmods available from Digilent can be found here.
